  • amazing, such a haunting sound

  • so you should do tabs to this cause this is great

  • @chris4rosser I've been considering a book of tablature, but I've had too much else going on to make it a priority. I'm sure it'll happen sooner or later. Regardless, thanks for your interest!

  • Amazing! What tuning is that in?

  • @kaunartist Thanks! The tuning, from 5th string to 1st string, is EAECD. It's the same tuning I use for "The Iron Kettle" (which you can also find on this channel) and my "Weekly acoustic sketch" for 2010-11-02 (which you can find on my "BenjiFlaming" channel).

  • @SoloBanjo Ohhh thanks. I was thinking about coming back to this and just figuring it out myself about a week ago...good timing!

  • @SoloBanjo Now that I think about it, just wanna check: when you say EAECD do you mean you've got a guitar-style low-E on the fifth, or the regular 5-string banjo 5th g tuned down to an e?

  • @kaunartist Actually, it's a regular 5th string physically dropped down to the 2nd fret. My Nechville Nuvo lets me do this, and I don't know whether the fingering would be playable with the 5th string still up at the 5th fret.

    You might want to tune your banjo GAECD, and then capo strings 1-4 at the third fret (which would make it a Cm tuning, rather than Am). This would give you the same relative fingerings I use.

    The tune itself is fairly simple - I'm sure you could work it out. :)

  • @SoloBanjo Thanks, I thought that looked like a Nechville with a through-string. I was starting to suspect that after the first note on the 5th string seemed impossible to find ;)

  • Ever since you played a Randy Woods Concert Hall I've been trying copy yur style of playing, your playing style is the absolute best by any mean s that I have ever seen!

  • It's a shame that your videos have so few views. This is some of the best stuff on youtube.

  • Pure awesomeness.

  • Wow... Ok now what do I say...

    I really loved that. Your harmonics are so clear and the melody is beautiful. I love solo banjo, keep it up
